On the morning news they reported that research has shown what moderate alcohol consumption (1 drink a day for women, 2 for men) has been shown to reduce the chance of Alzheimers, and a bit of daily chocolate (of any kind) is apparently good for other things.

I forget which one of us generally has a bit of dark chocolate most evenings, but she is ahead of the trend

I don't know about drinking every day, that is just too many empty calories, but the news makes me feel better about my single beer on Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings. Shades of my Baptist childhood where ANY drinking was a thing-of-the-devil...
